LH/RH

Give up the left hand right hand thing use std rotation vs opposite or counter rotation then you won't have that problem. Simple enough answer.

OK here goes when you are speaking about Q motors CHRIS CRAFT defined them this way at least in my boat and all the rest I have seen and in the manual. the STBD motor is a RH rotation and the PORT is a LH rotation but remember they have been turned around to take power from the nose of the motor. The RH rotation motor uses a timing chain to drive the cam and is therefore a std rotation motor the LH motor uses gears to drive the cam and is therefore a counter rotation motor. Thats why I dont bother with LH RH I just use std and counter rotation. What Chris Craft was trying to do is keep the terms the same so as it says in the manual "Rotation from shaft coupling end" so essentially yes Paul you are right.
